Twilight zone!
I’m getting ready start my day, watching Fox5Atlanta and two news stories, just baffle me, really make me stare at the tv and asking myself am I in the damn twilight zone? In the wake of all these school shootings, one kid who was suspended from school, breaks into a house, steals guns, then tries to “sell them” at school. His mom then gets on camera and declares
“my son is not a monster and meant no harm, he was actually trying to raise money for his homeless friends”.
As I stare at the TV in disbelieve, pausing the brushing of my teeth, to form the words “blind ass enabling faux parent”, here comes the clincher…. the police believe the story.
Then here comes the feel good story of the day, guaranteed to tug the heart strings, 17 year old dies of “accidental overdose”. Oooooooh so tragic, product of a good Christian home, played sports, everyone whoever met her loved her. Infectious smile etc. First thought hmmmm that’s a lot of drugs in that cocktail to be an accidental overdose. Then the back story, broke jaw playing sports, got hooked on pain killers, graduated to heroine…..ummmm ok. Disappeared for days at a time, but she’d always come back, like recently when she showed up to play in a big game. Hmmm 17 disappearing for days, on heroine and somehow this is acceptable? Who was buying the crank? If your daughter is missing in ga, why were you flying into another city when you got the call,saying she was dead? Get the fuck off the tv, you two bum ass “parents”.
I swear this white angelic privileged….it’s just awesome! If this story was of Trae and Kiki it probably would be lost in the pages of the Sunday ajc, if it made the news at all. But these non fuck up white perfect kids and their awesome parents. Gotta love it!
